Low quality fabric is $16/meter and &quot;designer&quot; fabrics like Amy Butler are $30/meter. I don&#39;t think there are many quilters here with prices like that!savvy stitchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09570404646801037051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623834231718414708.post-25516037423985488022010-05-13T11:06:09.881-07:002010-05-13T11:06:09.881-07:00I love this photo!

I thought i&#39;d lost something in the translation of money and it was really going to be $10/yard like in the US, but yeah, no.I Love Baby Quilts!http://www.blogger.com/profile/07044144669878001141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623834231718414708.post-60733150106300545322010-05-13T04:27:03.037-07:002010-05-13T04:27:03.037-07:00The little guy is a cutie!

As for the fabric prices in independent quilt shops---my local shop is trying very hard not to raise their prices, and the owners are trying new ways to keep their prices down by stimulating business in other quilty business ways. It&#39;s a lot of work on their part, but they are doing it. I still give them my business on a regular basis to help keep them alive and well, but I also order online fabric to help me stay near my budget---notice &quot;near&quot; my budget.
